[QUOTE="Demetrios1453, post: 9222115, member: 6801060"] Yes. Halruaa is mentioned in the Gray Box, and there's a big "To Halruaa" with an arrow pointing south off the map. Luiren, Durpar, and Raurin all get similar arrow treatment. There's a thread on this very forum showing Ed's original FR map that TSR used as the basis of the Gray Box set maps. Other than the Moonshaes being added in, Ed's original is very close to the Gray Box maps, other than what TSR left off from the eastern and southern edges of the published maps (presumably due to size and scale constraints). And, yes, Ed's has the entire southern shore from Chult through Durpar fully detailed like on later maps that did show the region. EDIT: Ah, found that thread: [URL]https://www.enworld.org/threads/ed-greenwoods-original-forgotten-realms-map.668302/[/URL] Interestingly enough, the same "To..." with arrows are there too, meaning that Ed didn't have them originally on the map (but did by the time TSR got it here), or TSR added those on there in anticipation of their versions. I'm thinking the latter, as there doesn't seem to be any discontinuity in design. Or Ed added those regions very early on, shortly after the rest of the map. They definitely don't look to have been added significantly later than the rest. [/QUOTE]
